Hey I can now tell you guys what a deer looks like![&:]

After seven hours on the stand spread out over five days I finally saw some deer from the stand. Like so much of the country our 90 degree weather finally left and the temps fell into the forties during the last bit of light this evening and what a difference it made in the deer movement.

I could only get out for the last hour of the day but I had four deer within range. A doe with twin fawns and a smallish psycho eight pointer. He really put on a show for me. The cool windy weather obviously had him feeling frisky as he was running, jumping, twisting in the air, kicking up his heels and shaking his head. He would run up this steep hill and then run all the way back down sometimes performing his ungulate pirouetts in the process.He did this about three times. It was fun to watch, I literally laughed out loud at his antics. It was so windy he couldn't hear me. I suppose he approached the 100 inch mark as far as size goes. There are bigger and better "fish" to fry than this frisky thespian buckaroo.

We are expecting the weather to cool down into the thirties the next few nights that should help. There is still a lot of corn in the fields however. Perhaps I can catch one of the big boys making a mistake....I can always hope.

Later......
